Inconsistencies and Confusion

The following are items of information that we are looking for, or we
have questions on, if you can help us out please email The Keeper of History.

The New York Arrivals - 1903

Josef Furmaniuk of Zbaraz arrived in New York City on December 25, 1903, on
board the ship Neckar, out of Bremen, Germany. He was 18 years old. Papers
show he was headed for Worcester, Massachusetts where a friend (believe the
name is "Gargulansky" but the page is hard to read) he was traveling with
had relatives. He had $6 in his possession.

Shortly thereafter he was joined by his brother Karol Furmaniuk on the Graf
Waldersee. Departing Hamburg March 16 and arriving March 31, 1907 in New York.
From the passenger list he was an 18 year old farm laborer from Zbaraz, Austria,
he seemed to be travelling with a friend. He had $10 with him. Listing "BARACZUK" as a residence

Both Karol and Josef listed their father as Michael Furmaniuk.

The New York Arrivals - 1909

Coming in 1909 was Wojiech Furmaniuk, who is probably a cousin to the above.

They can't be brothers because we have documentation that Wojiech's father
was Piotr Furmaniuk and his mother Apolonia Dabek.
